Let Your Care for Creation be Heard!

COP 26, the Major UN Global meeting on Climate Change, will be held in Glasgow, Scotland between October 31 and November 12.  We have a unique opportunity to let our voices be heard at this important gathering. Pope Francis has been an ardent supporter and we have a chance to join with the Pope and let the world hear as we lift our voices on behalf of the most vulnerable and urge nations to take bold action on the Paris agreement goals.
The Laudato Si’ Movement (formerly Global Catholic Climate Movement) has prepared the Healthy Planet, Healthy People Petition addressed to Leaders participating in these UN meetings and this is our opportunity to sign the petition and let our voices join others around the world as we advocate for nations to:

1) Tackle the climate emergency and biodiversity crisis together

2) Limit warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius and promise no more biodiversity loss 

3) Ensure equitable global action, including support for those most affected 

4) Protect and respect human rights, including the rights of Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities in climate and biodiversity action.​
